Sex Vs. Love - Which One Wins?


 PRESS RELEASE

Men Value Love $73 More Than Sex According to WhatsYourPrice.com Study

Los Angeles, CA (July 13, 2011) – WhatsYourPrice.com, the premier online dating marketplace where first dates are bought and sold, just announced the results of a three month study which concludes that men value love $73 more than sex.

According to the study, men seeking no-strings attached relationships paid an average of $121 for a first date, whereas single men looking for serious long-term relationships paid an average of $194 for the opportunity of finding love.

“We often hear the stereotype that men value sex and women value love,” says Founder & CEO of WhatsYourPrice.com and MIT alum, Brandon Wade. “Our study shows this stereotype is wrong. In fact, men value love more than sex by over 60%.”

The study also finds that men who seek only no-strings attached relationships tend to be serial daters and more prolific, paying for first dates over 2.1 times more than commitment-minded men.

Dating Advice for Women

According to WhatsYourPrice.com, the study translates directly into important, yet practical first date advice for women who are searching for love.

She should take note of where the man takes her on a first date.  Men who seek love will treat women with greater respect and generosity than men who only want sex.
